Richard Thompson – A Second To The Sun lyrics

Last train pushed into my town knocked me on my back
I tried so hard and piled the leaves to block the track
It's messing with my mind
I'm caught up in circles
I can't leave behind

It'll only take a second to the sun
It'll only take a second to the sun

I'm told to take the knocks
Accept them when they come
Lie on the line, don't try and hide
You're waiting for your crime
That day will never come
Only goodness you will find

It'll only take a second to the sun
It'll only take a second to the sun

It seems that they've all left here now I stand alone
And it's hard to judge the scale of all the damage done
Well now the skies have cleared
Those clouds have blown away
And with them all I feared

It'll only take a second to the sun
It'll only take a second to the sun
It'll only take a second to the sun
It'll only take a second to the su
